Transport changes from spring: final travel passes, subsidies return

The Ministry of Transport has reduced the minimum number of trips required to reclaim the deposit for free Renfe passes from 16 to 8.

Starting April 8, new bi-monthly passes for May–June can be requested through standard channels. This will be the last issue of such passes.

From July, a single monthly pass for commuter trains will be available for €20/month.

As of January 1, 2025 (yes, retroactively), the government has reinstated the subsidy program for electric vehicle purchases.

Up to €7,000 with scrapping of a vehicle over 10 years old.

Up to €5,500 without scrapping, plus a 15% tax deduction (up to €3,000).
